I worked for a cellular location company a decade ago, and the system was mostly used by US cell phone companies to meet the e911 US government requirements. The (entirely reasonable, at least at the time) most telling…
Interesting article - especially the idea of a continued oral tradition in pure mathematics when it comes to the why and what good is it as opposed to the rigorous styles used in the formal papers. This type of system…
"10m of accuracy" + "instead of giving people addresses" seems to leave a lot of people with the same 10:10. All of NYC (with the possible exception of central park) for starters. And even out in podunk, most of the…
ok, get info-raped by any and all then.
Beauty! I'd love it more if there were a "kinda figure out the normal pace of output and change color when it varies by %" mode. This would make it a time derivative color changer, perhaps. Use case: are we in the lunch…
Interesting - Regarding an article with a huge subtext of "cherish the past", you toss out crap from the 60's. For shame.
yes (bird police), and no (birds have adverse possession rights? - hahaha).

Is that the same Jason Surace who got his PhD from University of Hawaii befor Y2K? If so, small world, few Jason Surace's.
So, I've got a pitchfork with Intel's name on it. Need someone with a torch, similarly labeled. Preferably dozens. Anyone with me? (crickets...) OkStupid, I can count on you, right? Surely you can tell AMD vs. Intel…
So each year ~5M new cars hit the streets, at an extra $140 each, so the cost is ~$700M/yr. There are 210 deaths/yr by backing over, assume these prevent all 210 (they won't, certainly not until most of the old cars are…
Hmm, maybe Firefox should blacklist OKcupid. Turnabout is fair...
I agree - if some tiny % of Apple's 80k employees are poking Samsung in the eye via lawyers, no way the other ~80k employees are somehow useless or starved for attention or money. Especially since the $160B cash hoard…
So lets disrupt a bit: 1. Identify companies with liquidity, significant exposure to earthquake damage (down to the liquification zone offices) 2. short their stock 3. Wait for the 99.7% chance of earthquake by 2038…
Thanks for this - looks like its well thought out and executed.
So I'm typing this on a name brand Windows Machine, certainly "over the hill" in both hardware and software. Its sound worked when it was new, then stopped working. Booting Linux (Suse of a certain older vintage), and…
So? Even if title quote is true, what percentage of the population needs to know this (to live better, work better, act in some different fashion)? 5%? 1%? less? In other words, it is knowledge of trivia for most…
Works! Well done tech. Get your marketing department to sanitize for prudes, if you care for the prude market.
